Spring washers include a broad range of components with similar but tangential performance charactaristics to retaining rings.Common applications for spring washers include:- end-play take-up in assemblies due to cumulative manufacturing tolerances- compensation for dimensional changes in assemblies- elimination of rattle- maintenence of torque and "tightness" in fasteners- compensation for expansion and contraction in environments with severe temperature fluctuation- shock absorption

Please note that bellville (conical) washers are located in our washer section (both American and metric).
